Summer 2014 PonyShare programs 4-day PETITE EQUESTRIAN PROGRAM (PEP) WHO:

Ages 3 –6 (groups broken down according to age & experience, if any)

Participants will learn safety on and around the ponies, grooming techniques, basic riding skills, and other WHAT: primary horsemanship skills. While not a Horseback Riding lesson per se, the program includes an exciting riding component where one third to one half of each session is dedicated to actual riding, learning how to properly mount, hold the reins and control the horse/pony at the walk and trot. Sessions aim to help develop confidence and motor-coordination skills while providing a supportive, fun, and non-threatening environment. This is a participatory program for parents who so desire. The perfect preparation for private or semi-private lessons for eager young aspiring equestrians! Repeat participants are welcomed as PonyShare constantly introduces new games, challenges and course materials. A winner by many... furlongs, this program tends to book early.

4-day PONY GROOMING & RIDING PROGRAM (PGRP) WHO:

Ages 7 –13 (groups broken down according to age & experience, if any)

This unique program provides an exciting and inexpensive hands-on introduction to the wonderful world of WHAT: equines in a fun-filled, non-threatening atmosphere. PonyShare uses camp-trained ponies and cobs which are smaller and easier to handle than their larger equine counterparts. After reviewing safety rules, materials previously covered, and learning new subject matter, participants are assigned their size-related pony or cob. Small groups of 4-5 children are formed and work under the tutelage of a qualified and motivated counselor. Some of the horsemanship matters covered include: Safety on and around horses, basic anatomy, equine senses, body language, grooming, the tack and harness, driving the miniature horse, English & Western styles, barn management and careers in the industry. One-third to one-half of each session is dedicated to actual riding. This program enhances teamwork, self-esteem and camaraderie while helping to develop a genuine appreciation and respect for the animals. WHEN, WHERE & FEES: Monday through Thursday, with Friday as a rain date if needed! PEP: August 4th – 8th 3:00–4:15pm at Forest Road Park, $195/child PGRP: August 4th – 8th 4:30pm – 6:30pm at Forest Road Park, $239/child Course materials provided.
